NGS Approaches for Epigenetics Research
About the webinar
Epigenetic mechanisms regulate gene activity without altering the underlying DNA sequence and play important roles in development, disease and responses to environmental change.
This webinar introduces a range of sequencing approaches for epigenetics research, including DNA methylation sequencing using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing and enzymatic methyl sequencing, ChIP-seq for investigating DNA–protein interactions, ATAC-seq for chromatin accessibility and RIP-seq for studying RNA–protein interactions.
The session explains the principles and applications of these methods, alongside practical considerations for workflow planning, bioinformatics analysis and integration with transcriptomics or other omics datasets.
